About Heart 10s live

Technical details, frequency and station information

Heart 10s is built on the 2010s, the decade when streaming replaced the single as the unit of pop and the chart began to move much more slowly than it used to. That produces a particular kind of playlist. The biggest songs of the decade stayed popular for years rather than weeks, so the station leans on a smaller set of very well-known records — the sort that a mainstream service like Heart itself still plays regularly. It is the closest of the decade channels to the main station's own output, which makes it more of an alternative than a departure. It runs on national DAB alongside Heart 70s, 80s, 90s, Musicals and Love, so it reaches a digital radio anywhere in the UK rather than only through the app. As with the rest of the family there is no local news, no phone-ins and no request show. The format is uninterrupted music with brief links, intended to sit in the background. Heart 10s broadcasts on DAB across the UK and streams online.

Frequently asked questions about Heart 10s live

Neither. Heart 10s is internet-only, which in practice means no coverage map and no interference: it sounds the same in Cornwall, in Glasgow and abroad. The player on this page carries the live feed, free and without an account.
Because digital radio made it possible. Once DAB and streaming removed the scarcity of frequencies, broadcasters could split a general audience into single decades, and it turned out a great many people wanted exactly one decade rather than a mix.
Yes. The stream is open and there is nothing to configure, so Heart 10s plays the same from anywhere. The only thing to watch is the time difference if you are following a particular programme.
Free, with no subscription and no paid tier. British radio is funded either by advertising or, in the BBC's case, by the licence fee — either way, listening costs the listener nothing.
No. Heart 10s plays directly in the browser with nothing to download and no account to create. It works the same on Android, iPhone and desktop.
